A 150,000 people petition urging the EU to protect the welfare of fish

A petition asking for new standards to protect the welfare of fish signed by more than 150,000 people, was handed on Monday to the European Commission. It comes ahead of a full revision of animal welfare legislation announced by the Commission in May 2020 as part of the EU farm and Fork strategy and Compassion in World Farming wants to ensure that farmed fish welfare standards are included.

The petition was sponsored by “Compassion in World Farming”, a leading farm animal welfare organization dedicated to ending factory farming and achieving humane and sustainable food. The organization alleges to have representatives across Europe, in the USA, and in China.
